The Eating Disorder Diaries

Entry 2: Why do we feel so much shame behind our eating disorders?

Amy Goeckel Season 1 Episode 2

In the second entry of The Eating Disorder Diaries, Amy shares statistics about eating disorders, surprising herself with her findings of how many people EDs truly impact. She discusses the shame she felt behind her eating disorder, which is something she knows others have experienced as well. Those with EDs tend to have a shame narrative about themselves, so she talks about how to break that shame narrative and start telling yourself a kinder narrative. Finally, Amy gives 4 examples of things she has implemented in her life to get her to a point of recovery, and wraps up the episode talking about one of her tried and true routines: journaling.
